Cracked

My mother once told me

that dramatic changes

in temperature

could cause my favorite mug

to crack.

I thought and thought about this,

and I realized

that it's almost the same for humans.

One day you were here,

the next, you were gone.

This change cracked me

right down the middle.

And this mug is unfixable.
